Happy 65th birthday to the great Julio Franco!!! Something tells me he could still get a base hit.

To right field.

CWS won 5 - 4 in 10

Nice and a Astros loss later would be sweet

It is beyond words that they couldn't see this in spring training. The guy was in a groove. Why they didn't send him to Round Rock as part of the rotation and instead put him in the pen is just ridiculous. There are things this front office has done that it's like their heads are in the sand and that includes not resigning Matt Moore. If you are going all in then go all in.

Massive failure for the Rangers front office regarding Cole Ragans. Unforgivable really. But this is where they get their awful rep around the league regarding pitching development. I can't believe they blew it so badly with him. Tremendous loss. But who's accountable?

Tells you you a lot about them evaluating pitching.

Neither am I but nothing wrong with wishing bad for the Astros

4-4 in 5th

Lance Lynn in 4 starts for the Dodgers has an ERA of 1.44 … something about that uniform.

Toronto lost which is good for us.

Owen White only gave up 1 hit in 5.2 innings, but he walked 4.
